Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 190 - 192 The Furious Regent King
Chapter 190: Chapter 192 The Furious Regent King
Dongfang Li, from his higher vantage point, saw the crowded throng below, with undisguised arrogance in his eyes.
But as he saw the red lanterns in front of the Commandery Princess’ Mansion, he couldn’t help but grip his riding whip tighter.
"Feng Bailing, you will be the one to regret this in time. I truly wonder how that cripple will welcome you outside."
Dongfang Li felt annoyed in his heart.
He consoled himself by thinking that it wasn’t regret he was feeling, but rather sympathy for Feng Bailing.
Since the other party was ungrateful, biting the hand that fed him, he couldn’t be blamed for kicking him while he was down.
Dongfang Li’s entourage, a large troop of horsemen, had blocked off the streets outside both the Commandery Princess’ Mansion and Feng Mansion.
He sat on his horse without dismounting and greeted Feng Zhanlian and Aunt Xue, as well as Feng Zhan Tian and Madam Feng, who were outside the gates of Feng Mansion.
"Your son-in-law pays respects to the four seniors of the family."
Feng Zhanlian and his wife, as well as Feng Zhan Tian and his wife, smiled stiffly. Yet the thought of their daughter marrying Dongfang Li and dramatically improving her status brought a few more smiles to their faces.
Separated by a mere wall, another scene altogether was unfolding in the other half of Feng Mansion, within the Princess’ Mansion.
Feng Xiangxue slowly woke up.
The first thing she saw wasn’t her boudoir but a somewhat familiar eastern chamber.
She was startled, her body clad in only an undergarment, with her wedding dress nowhere to be seen.
Her heart pounding with fear, she looked up and saw Xiao Junci drinking, his iron-like arm wrapped around her waist.
He was shirtless, his eyes like those of a hawk, filled with raw desire, staring straight at her.
Feng Xiangxue was about to scream for help when she heard Xiao Junci ridicule with a cold laugh.
"Second Miss, you’d best not shout indiscriminately. On your wedding day, if you and I were found in disarray, sleeping in the same bed, I wonder what thoughts it might provoke in Dongfang Li if he saw us?"
Feng Xiangxue’s scream was stuck in her throat, unable to come out.
"What exactly do you want? You’ve ruined my honor, do you want my death as well?"
Feng Xiangxue sobbed.
Her voice was enticing, her appearance like pear blossoms bathed in rain, enough to invoke pity in most men.
Xiao Junci’s rough right hand caressed her smooth shoulder.
"Second Miss, I never fail to get what I desire. If you had just obediently accepted me back then, none of this would have happened today."
"I bear no grudge against you, why must you insist on me? If you desire beauties, I can spend money to buy them for you."
Feng Xiangxue shivered uncontrollably.
"A beauty is but a skin, I covet you for your talent. Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance, play a tune for me on the Suona, and if it pleases me, I’ll let you go. But if it doesn’t satisfy me..."
Xiao Junci pointed to a Suona beside the pillow.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiangxue’s eyes flickered with hope.
"I’ll play that Suona piece from Wangyue Pavilion."
Xiao Junci said languidly.
His gaze drifted outside unconsciously.
Outside, the sounds of a different kind of music could already be heard.
Dugu Wu must be here to pick up his bride.
The big show was about to start, and Feng Xiangxue was nothing but an appetizer for him.
Moments later, Xiao Junci’s expression suddenly changed as he grabbed Feng Xiangxue.
"What kind of rubbish did you play?"
The same Suona, yet how could the difference be so vast? Not to mention as good as the ancient zither he heard that day at Yuxiu Academy, it was much better than what Feng Xiangxue had just played.
"Regent King, this piece is indeed the Suona music played in Wangyue Pavilion."
Feng Xiangxue trembled even more.
She couldn’t remember it fully, but she had managed to play it after all.
"Feng Xiangxue, do you have a death wish, daring to deceive me!"
Xiao Junci grabbed Feng Xiangxue’s hair and violently threw her to the ground.
Feng Xiangxue let out a tragic cry, feeling her forehead cool, she screamed, covering her head with her hands.
Xiao Junci took a closer look and saw that there was a large patch of hair missing from the top of Feng Xiangxue’s head.
A look of disgust appeared on his face.
"I thought you were a beauty, but you’re just an eyesore. Speak, what exactly is the meaning of this suona?"
"It wasn’t me who played the suona, it was... it was Feng Bailing."
Feng Xiangxue sobbed incessantly.
Xiao Junci’s face turned livid.
It was Feng Bailing!
"Bitch, you have tricked me so thoroughly."
Xiao Junci kicked Feng Xiangxue fiercely, and she felt as if her insides were being shattered, vomiting two mouthfuls of blood, her complexion deathly pale.
"Prince, the wedding procession of Dugu Wu has arrived, and it has clashed with Dongfang Li’s wedding party. They are at a standoff outside."
Vice General Zhou said from the doorway.
Xiao Junci’s face was ashen.
Could it be that the woman he’d taken pains to secure was the wrong one?
And Feng Bailing could play such suona music?
"Dugu Wu’s grand wedding, how could I, the Prince, be absent? Bring this wretched woman along; I want to personally extend my congratulations to Dugu Wu."
On the street, as Dugu Wu’s wedding procession arrived, they were blocked by Dongfang Li’s team.
"Seventh Prince, please make way."
Feng Zao stood at the forefront of the wedding procession. Due to Dugu Wu’s physical impairment, he was not on horseback but arrived in a horse carriage.
"What are you, that Dugu Wu should personally disembark to beg me?"
Dongfang Li glanced at the horse carriage.
"Oh, I almost forgot, Dugu Wu is now a cripple. How can a cripple marry and enter the bridal chamber, why don’t I do the honors instead?"
Saying this, Dongfang Li burst into laughter.
His wedding procession also erupted with raucous laughter.
As soon as Dongfang Li’s words fell, his steed suddenly neighed, rearing high. Dongfang Li on its back was greatly alarmed, clutching at the horse reins, but to no avail as the horse ran wildly towards his own wedding procession.
Inside the wedding procession, instant chaos ensued, chair bearers and servants scattered in all directions, throwing the formation into disarray.
"Stop!"
Dongfang Li, his face ashen, whipped his mount with the horsewhip in his hand, but the horse grew more frenzied, galloping towards the gates of Feng Mansion.
Both Feng Zhanlian and Feng Zhan Tian were taken aback, scurrying for cover, the scene incredibly lively.
"Beast!"
Seeing the turn of events, Dongfang Li leaped up and punched the maddened horse, causing it to foam at the mouth. Tilting its head, it collapsed dead at the entrance of Feng Mansion.
"Feng Xiangxue" and Feng Ruoyan, the sisters, happened to be escorted out by their own maids and nannies, turning pale with fright.
The crowd gathered at the entrance of Feng Mansion scattered in all directions.
The shaken populace had yet to recover their senses when they saw the horse carriage curtains part and a little boy jumped out.
Despite his young age, the boy held an air of distinction, wearing a red, long robe, his brows and eyes revealing cleverness.
"Father, I will welcome the Queen Mother out for you."
Dugu Xiaojin’s voice was clear and pleasant, as he unhurriedly made his way to the outside of the Princess’ Mansion.
Dongfang Lianhua and Nanny Su had already been standing there, with a delicately carved little girl beside them.
The little girl saw Dugu Xiaojin, her round face beaming with a brilliant smile, she gave Dugu Xiaojin a thumbs up.
Brother Xiaojin, you are awesome!
Looking inside, a captivating red figure slowly approached.
